As a last resort, I had to file for bankruptcy. I did not know what lawyer to choose. I came across Mr Portney's ad on-line and gave him a call. He was very knowledgeable and explained the bankruptcy process in layman's terms. Needless to say , he became my attorney. From day one, any questions or concerns that I had were addressed in a timely matter which made me feel that I always had someone in my corner.

Bankruptcy Case

I was in a bind due to being abandoned by my ex-husband and a divorce. I never recovered. My house was scheduled to be Foreclosed on and I went to the Federal Building in Baltimore to file bankruptcy. I was given a list of lawyers that could help me complete the process and this is how I met Attorney Portney. He sat down with me and ironed out all of the information needed to complete the process as I had completed the bare minimum to create a stay on the foreclosure. Although it was very intrusive, Atty Portney assured me that this was basic information that was needed for the bankruptcy. I was unaware of how in depth the entire procedure was, but he was determined to set me up so that we could be on our way. In short, everything turned out fine and I will have my bankruptcy confirmed. It was as good as it could be providing the situation. I will be sure to recommend he and his team to anyone who requests an attorney specializing in bankruptcy. He is the best.
Sincerely,
Stephanie

David Portney is an excellent attorney and very knowledgable. David explains every detail about what is expected and how things are. He will fight and do everthing possible to make sure you are comfortable in your journey that can be very frustrating in a scary moment. All I can say he is the best. My wife and I would recommend his services. You will not be dissappointed. He has made our experience smooth with no stress. Thanks again Mr. DAVID PORTNEY for your services.

I was provided a quick response, and specific citations to the law regarding my bankruptcy situation during the consultation. I would definetely recommend him if you need to file for bankruptcy or need advice for your situation.

An excellent, no nonsense attorney.

100% on the ball, in my court (literally), doing his best to get the best outcome for my family. While I hope I never need of his services in the future, if I did, he would be the guy I would go to.
Thanks David.

I had the opportunity to work with David Portney as he represented me in managing my legal affairs. David provided the value of a seasoned and experienced attorney who is very comfortable operating within the various levels of the judicial system.

My chapter 7 case could have had many unusual complications. David prepared me for them, but everything proceeded smoothly.. He kept me informed throughout the process, but really all the pressure was off once I retained him. What a relief! David exceeded my expectations, and I would highly recommend him.

So after doing a little research to determine whether filing for bankruptcy would be right for me, I cam across Grossbart, Portney, & Rosenberg law firm. After having my meeting with David, I felt that much more confident in needing to file. He gave me a breakdown as to what was going to happen and indeed it happened as he informed me. He was able to answer any questions that I had, but the fact that he was thorough in his explanation there were very few questions. The reason there are only 3 stars for responsive is that there was one occurrence where I left a message for him to call me, as he was assisting another client, but never got the return call. This time it wasn't imperative that I get it answered right away, so I waited until my hearing with the trustees to ask. He was able to answer then so it was no problem. The trustee hearing went smooth as I could imagine. I was actually shocked at how quickly it went. The one thing I can tell you, if you want it to go as smooth as it did for me, I advise you to be completely and totally honest. It's just like t.v., you leave your lawyer uninformed and they are surprised by something you failed to mention it will go bad for you. Really bad!! I don't plan on having to revisit this course of action in the future, but if by some chance I do I know I will utilize David and his law firm again. I also would not hesitate in referring them to others.
